i guess maybe one way you could do it make her instead have a univseral teamup where each life she can chose one pre selected ablity from an ally
#Mahvel Rivals baby
wanton salmon
i think thatd be a bit much, and its not really something she does iirc
runic apex
the power taking?
wanton salmon
if it was a choice from allies
it would require a lot of additional stuff, more than lokis ult even, which just directly copies the enemy ult
shes prolly just gonna be an flying energy blast/melee dps with a poison kiss grapple
tho imo she should be tank of off tank like reed now thats an option
raven summit
Maybe she just punches people with her gloves off she gets some bonus health. Frame it like she's absorbing their energy.
sand kelp
it would require a lot of additional stuff, more than lokis ult even, which just...
Loki copies the whole kit actually, but using him as a cloned ult is what most ppl use him for lol
raven summit
She could gain a uniform ability for the class of character she absorbs from.
Or a brief buff.
sand kelp
That'd be handy, it's also close to an idea I saw for Taskmaster
Copying a specific non-ult ability from someone would be his gimmick, but mechanically Rogue could do that too so idk
runic apex
i think some charcter just don't translate well to a game and taskmaker is one of them
widow is another
glass pollen
Taskmaster would need to be a normal kit
which is like the one thing taskmaster doesnt do
or you will have to settle with something similar to the MVC version
sand oracle
taskmaster should be rubick
lilac snow
I think you could do Taskmaster as like a set kit but every ability in the kit is stolen from another character
Which gets around the weirdness of either deciding who he can or can’t spontaneously copy, or rigging up a model that can support 40(?) characters of animations
glass pollen
tbh it helps that taskmaster is just human but witha sharingan
so the score goes to arguably like 10 or so of the cast right now
you also could do a stance/swap char like c&D
runic apex
i thought about how gambit could be a melee/ranged swap
that or his cards work like spiderman but more damage focused
make missed cards turn into mines
with a lifespan so its not like peni
fallow stump
I scrolled past this and got flashbanged with body envy
lilac snow
Does Gambit need to have a mode swap? Every character has a melee button
He can just have a decent melee and maybe a melee range ability
runic apex
i feel like for gambit either ranged or a swap makes most sense
sand kelp
I think this is supposed to be Malice?
glass pollen
sues skin yeah
runic apex
i really want to know the balance changes
raven summit
Gambit could work like Spidey where he has a ranged alt fire that regenerates.
runic apex
i think in the context of rivals i think its better probally for him to work more like hawkeye ranged normal mode
but has a melee ablity
cause i can't think of a way he would gap close
wanton salmon
i think gambit coul also have a general meter, which he can then spend to boost any ability
like....
runic apex
i did think about that as well
wanton salmon
left click staff hit, right click card throw
shift flip jump pole vault
f throw something larger
passive movement buff to parkour a little
then a meter, and if you hold down any of the buttons instead of hitting them once, you get to charge the ability and put as much energy as you want into it (up to a different cap for each ability)
so you charge up then either dive or join a team fight to spend it
runic apex
that would probally be too much to keep track of mid fight, i was just thinking maybe something like mantis but more limited
has to be close to them, and cant do as many
wanton salmon
it could a set of charges round his cross hair too
then its just, hold down the button to spend one charge
to get a boosted version of the ability
throw a card becomes throw an explosive card etc
pole vault becomes a super jump with aoe damage
runic apex
another thing is maybe he normally fires cards normally but also has more powerful cards that if you miss becomes a mine with a lmited lifespan that explode
teal mist
Clearly Gambit needs TF2 Soldier Rocket Jumping with explosive cards
runic apex
i think they did that once actully
not with gambit but gambit boosted wolverine
im sorta in this wierd place where i think that would be cool but i also don't want it because im really bad at rocket jumping and i really like gambit
green junco
He could throw the cards which embed and explode
teal mist
Also love people being like 'omg Sue is a tank shredder' because she kills a Thor at 100 hp in the trailer
runic apex
im more worried about reed than Sue
the main thnuig im worried about sue is if the invisable ult heals
teal mist
I wouldn't mind a heal but not 200 fuckin HPS
runic apex
i don't think it should heal at all, maybe at most like a 200 point heal on cast
teal mist
She feels.. I dunno
runic apex
i don't know if it can heal or not yet
teal mist
Luna/Mantis ult moves, Luna's lasts for six years, the heal rate is absurd
runic apex
lets say it heals the same as mantis rate
teal mist
Still don't think it'd be as strong as the Mantis Manuever
runic apex
its a fixed healing zone about the size of a point, that makes alies invisable to the enemy
teal mist
but maybe i'm underestimating size
see my thought process is
if it heals that fast
the invisibility is absolutely pointless
so it seems unlikely they'd make it that way
watching the trailer again and there's not an obvious rush of health into any folks inside it but they skip around a good bit
teal mist
horg, well hopefully it's a lot more gentle of a heal
runic apex
now im worried rivals is gonna kill itself like overwatch did by just maknig healers way overtuned and break the game
teal mist
neat that you can airburst the Psionic Vortex thing

LETS GO THE NEW PENI SKIN IS BLUUUUUUUUE

it would be really funny if a marvel charcter is actully a dc charcter in disguse the entire time

Yeah, I mentioned "Buried Allen" before
runic apex
thats a pretty good example
glass pollen
it would be really funny if a marvel charcter is actully a dc charcter in disgus...

https://old.reddit.com/r/marvelrivals/comments/1hw8e0h/list_of_changes_from_the_early_test_stream/ this seems to be some of the changes
they buffed squirrel girl's ult
sand oracle
if quicker cloak swaps is real I will be overjoyed
runic apex
other thean them not really nerfing mantis or luna ults most of the changes are in a postive direction
sand oracle
Oh cool they aren’t removing any team ups this season
I'm so sad thor and cap don't have a teamup where thor hits cap's shield to make a shockwave
hexed niche
I mean being forced to actually choose between healing or damage is a really nice change imo
sand oracle
having fastball special at all is nice but we could do more
teal mist
I mean being forced to actually choose between healing or damage is a really nic...
Also just thankful to not have to look at the Turbo Lightshow anymore
hexed niche
Yah
teal mist
should be nerfed more but hey
runic apex
its more of the healing and how long it lasted that made it overpowered not the swaping
teal mist
Healers being Too Strong is the absolute worst thing a game can have
I know everyone loves being healed and having one
But lordt
runic apex
they should add a tanky healer that heals by doing damage to the enemy and heals all allies at once while doing damage, and also give them a shield and throwable armor, as well as a stun attack and a long ranged knockback attack
teal mist
"Why do these actions heal people?" Why because.
runic apex
just to let people know im refrencing brig release the single worst era of overwatch
teal mist
I still never got over her bein all noodleyarmed, I forget which skin made it look crazy
green junco
Also for those who were a little sad that Blade didn't get added, Reed has been in the lore since launch and he got added, so I'm sure he'll be soon
And he was mentioned as well within the event lore
sour forge
as a luna player they need to put luna ult into a crater
green junco
And for those who were curious, this is what Ratatoskr in Marvel looks like. She shows up in Unbeatable Squirrel Girl. Only mentioning her since Dracula abducts her due to Ratatoskr being able to kill Dracula with her horn
So maybe future playable character? Maybe not but cool little reference
Also looks to be two new teamups this season, Reed and Sue, and most likely Storm and Human Torch
runic apex
that team up does seem like it could be a bit broken with a full team
green junco
Based on the name, I think it might just be for the couple, since it's "wedded" harmony
Idk why it says the whole team though, that would be wack
runic apex
maybe but it also does yeah
green junco
Torchs leaks only mention the storm teamup
Also based on the sue ult, I think it's just people crossing the barrier are slowed not everyone in the fight
Kinda like Thors thorforce bubble
runic apex
yeah but that still seems kinda strong with also healing
green junco
The trailer doesn't show anyone go in but the blurb reads like Thors bubble ability
It just depends on how much healing over time in the end, compared to the current mega strategist ults
Also the new hero hot list coming to the official marvel rivals page
Even separated by console versus PC is nice too
green junco
They did, but it's nice to have it in one spot, and be official as well
runic apex
i think SG is really underrated and people are not seeing her potental
runic apex
even high level players i think don't see her potenial. I did watch someone high ranked play and it was mainly just good aim and not using her kit to the fullest that they performed well
they didn't use their double cooldowns that often nor the ult very well
green junco
Why use all of her kit when you can just kill them all
Or you know, Hawkeye hela headshots
So far pretty happy with how this game is going so far
If they keep the pace going with new characters and content, this will be sick
Also adding the settings that people noticed weren't there like mouse acceleration was nice
runic apex
YAY more ults that just turn off playing the game
sour forge
having an ult that just deals 9999 is probably gonna be pretty good
glass pollen
yeah its arguably worse than mantis/Luna because it also is a DoT
sour forge
hey now luna's is the radius of the sun
steady flame
Her standing there and getting machine gunned in the face looks so funny
runic apex
i think this ult would be fine if it didnt stack
did they also make the width larger?
runic apex
i think so far all thea healers ults that heal seem overtuned
the thing is i think outside of their ults they are balanced pretty fine
sand oracle
I think adam is at odds with the rest of the game encouraging the team to mostly spread out
but yeah otherwise I think C&D getting a bit of a buff is fine but not super needed
runic apex
i do think adam is maybe a little weak
i don't think CD needed a buff i think they were perfectly fine
runic apex
swap is fine
sand oracle
swapping to cloak to dodge stuff takes just too long imo
sour forge
I don't think adam is at all at odds with that, the bounce range is fucking insane
runic apex
i think its more of the link
sour forge
landing completely accidental deepstrike heals out of spawn because my team has formed a conga line of LoS is pretty nuts
sand oracle
it's more the link
sour forge
link should absolutely not be an ability that works at range
sand oracle
and also his ult is sort of terrible
sour forge
that shit is absolutely bananas, they would need to put it in the bin and give him something else
sand oracle
like I think if standing within 2 metres of a teammate wasn't as potentially dangerous as it is adam would feel better
sour forge
I do not like rez's existence in the game
runic apex
i think its actully balanced in this game
sand oracle
honestly it took me so long to figure out how the ability actually worked
the tooltip is very confusing
sour forge
yeah it's really weird
sour forge
it rezzes people who died near him, but the rez point is the thing you actually throw, which is... deeply strange
sour forge
realizing the optimal play is to chuck the giant thing that looks like it should be the one rezzing people behind cover so you can float through rezzing people is so fucking strange
sand oracle
I think the only time I've used his ult is accidently shapeshifting into him
runic apex
sand oracle
they've failed to make another strategist as fun as loki
runic apex
crunch
sour forge
I like Snow but I wish it wasn't optimal to be healbotting
at which point I should probably just learn Mantis instead
sand oracle
I do honestly really appreciate that the sorta memey illusion character isn't absolutely goddawful
sour forge
yeah it turns out Echo ult is good
runic apex
yeah
sand oracle
yeah
sour forge
Echo you start at 0%, you just charge it 6x faster for obvious reasons
sand oracle
it's really something
runic apex
is echo random
sour forge
no echo is lock on and pick
sour forge
you can also copy allies as echo
sand oracle
I should be shifiting into more healers but getting a free double kill as starlord is so tempting
I've also managed a portal kill with iron man's ult while shapeshifted with a buddy once, that was fun
sour forge
HEAAAAADDDDDDJOHHHHHHHNDAAAAAIRY
they were really on something making a soldier 76 ult with 3x the dps and also you can fly and i-frame during it
sour forge
quality over quantity
sand oracle
as I said, free double kill
sour forge
it's annoying but also honestly
if you're an aim demon on starlord your regular kill power is so nuts anyway
runic apex
your in some ways easier ot kill than 76
and harder in others
longer startup no self heal, but you can fly and air dodge
sand oracle
if you're an aim demon on starlord your regular kill power is so nuts anyway
that's the fun part with only playing him when shapeshifted, I can be terrible at aiming and still own
sour forge
yeah it turns out soldier 76 with more than one useful ability is pretty good
giving him flight instead of tracer blinks and flat i-frames in lieu of rewind honestly shook out as a relatively balanced sidegrade
runic apex
finisher
sour forge
I think it's also just an extra backup mag
that genre of ability always feels weirdly good in fpses when your aim's not quite good enough to secure a kill

Go for Rocket. He spends a decent amount of time as a higher mobility ranged DPS
sour forge
I was gonna say Mantis but you kinda need to be critting with her
runic apex
im pretty sure they mean as loki
sour forge
oh
green junco
The cloak and dagger ult always had stacking, but usually I don't really see it happening because most cloak try to make as much area covered as they can
Or the rest of the time just doesn't play on it
hexed niche
i do think adam is maybe a little weak
Adam is actually currently considered the third or even second best healer at high elo
sour forge
he is strong he's just also mad fucking boring
hexed niche
Soul bond is one of the best damage prevention tools in the game and his revive can be easily cheesed to revive people away and behind cover and be done safely
Along with having the 2nd best DPS of the healers behind Mantis
And the best burst damage with a fully charged barrage+head shot
hexed niche
he is strong he's just also mad fucking boring
Honestly I really enjoy him because he feels like a healer I actually need to manage my resources on
His heal and soul bond have actual cooldowns and it’s not like he can heal via his gun
So I’m actually thinking when it’s worth it to heal with either
It’s partially why I like Loki too
Though for him I just like teleporting around and confusing people with clones
sour forge
I just don't like his gun that much but I adore Ana, Illaoi and Juno who all shoot to heal
idk why, since I also enjoy Zen and his gun is just... Zen orbs 2
up to and including the charge up alt fire, and the egregarious headshot mult
sour forge
sorry Illari who is PRONOUNCED Illaoi
or Illiari
or Yaoi
man I don't fuckin know
she's the one with the sun gun
lilac snow
Yeah I found her by specifically searching "illaoi overwatch"
However "yaoi overwatch" produces no such luck
sour forge
I wish she was a huge lady but unfortunately she is in fact a toddler
many... such... I guess not
anyway she gets to put down a turret that heals people and also has a heal altfire that's a laser beam which did make me think of Loki a bit
but Loki getting to put down approximately six fucktillion pylons and having a relatively limited range on each gives it very different flavor

I need the new maps so I can play Peni and Loki whilst having literally any hiding place to put summons
mild pine
I like to collapse the cave areas in the Wakanda map
Also, Sue Storm being in the game has accidentally buffed moon knight
because she has an ability that forcibly draws people together

That's gonna be fox

Sue scares me
mild pine
She should! Sue is terrifying
timber garnet
From what ive seen of Reed i also love his animations
lone sedge
It draws people together? I thought it was just a big ass invis cloud

They really nailed the "goofy badass" vibe of his character

inside the invisible cloud you all have to be together
It's not ankh sized but I think it's THE MOON HAUNTS YOU sizedish

inside the invisible cloud you all have to be together
Meanwhile iron man, magneto, jeff, etc
Honestly they need to bring some street level spidey villains into this just for the hilarity of it
Give me fridge form kingpin

Vulture would be really funny
mild pine
I think I saw a move of hers that just shlooped people together steadily
Morbius might show up

Wingsuit melee sounds like a funny archetype

Morbius might show up
I don't think they're going to do that considering Morbing time
sly yew
Anything about him morbing?
lone sedge
They're 100% gonnna reference morbin time if they do
considering they reference shit like dracula owing moon knight money
timber garnet
Unironically the memes around the movie may forever mark Morbius
Whoever made the Morbing Time joke first has irrevocably altered comics
lilac snow
considering they reference shit like dracula owing moon knight money
Yet they won't reference Hawkeye Initiative by giving Hawkeye juicy cake

Ok so
What does Thor’s ulti do exactly
I just mash it in complicated looking fights and get a kill or two
runic apex
it does damage in an aoe to enemies then slams down after a while
lapis aspen
it gives you quite a fright and makes a red circle
sand kelp
Unironically the memes around the movie may forever mark Morbius
It sucks bc Michael Morbius has the potential to be a really interesting mainstay. Vampires that are also doctors is just a good fucking trope.
It's a shame that the people who were in charge of translating it to the big screen were the people at Sony, who cannot stop tripping over their dicks to save their lives
lapis aspen
is he really called michael morbius
sand kelp
Yep
That's his honest to God full name
Unironically I would love to see him in the game as a healer
timber garnet
Tbf it isn't the weirdest name in the comics
Or at least, it fits with other names
Peter Parker, Stephen Strange, Reed Richards
lapis aspen
It's weird Strange's last name is strange
Parker and Richards are normal names to have
raven summit
I feel there are some weird names around them.
Nick Fury... actually it's just Fury.

Hell ultimate sue gets conflated with 616 sue

"How do we make Wolverine more edgy? I know, make him a pedo!" -Ultimate writers
lilac snow
Peter Parker, Stephen Strange, Reed Richards
IIRC Stan Lee did an interview once and said it was because the alliterative names were easier to remember when juggling a dozen different comics
(Also put Bruce Banner on the list)
hexed hearth
ultimate spider man was mostly solid for a while
the issue of just wolverine talking to the doomed mutant kid was pretty good
but other than that....just so much missed potential
vast geyser
To this day when I see an alliterative name I think it sounds like a comic book character

Mario Mario
lone sedge
What is it with comic book writers and doing that surprisingly often anyway
Like with one of the flashes, I forget which
runic apex
shock value im guessing
lapis aspen
also might be, the kind of people who are really into making edgy comics are often real dirtbags

Writers also fed multiple characters to The Blob

that's a mutanmt right

Yeah

Hulk also ate people in Ultimates.
There was also the Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch stuff.

I think Hulk can be allowed to eat some people in a ultimate style comic

the aughts were a fucking Time and a half
edgier than the 90s to the point of being actually absurd and cruel
there's things i do genuinely enjoy about the original ultimate run but it was a direction that actively punished you for getting attached to characters
dense wolf
raven summit
People know what I'm talking about, lol.
frigid moat
Peni has the second highest win rate of last season and got zero patches lmao
runic apex
i could see her as a charctre people mainly play on defense
and thus they play her when she is most useful
mild pine
I enjoy playing Magneto
because I enjoy slam-dunking on the enemy
Suck my basketballs
I slam funked on both healers just now and we rolled over the enemy team
dense wolf
I think it's a little rude to drop a meteor on somebody
mild pine
It supremely is
which is why it's so enjoyable
This might be one of the few moments I had a "good" MK ult
I'm not doing spectacular but hell I'm doing it
"time to put on a show!"
A round of applause from the heavens please
mild pine
Oh! Who do you think will combo stuff?
The fantastic four will probably have it
Reed and Ironman? Fight smart and all that
vast geyser
This might be one of the few moments I had a "good" MK ult
That is the most Moon Knight thing I've ever seen, getting away from Black Panther by slowly walking forward, just throwing stuff at your ahnk at melee and never once turning to look at him
runic apex
reed and sue have a team up if thats what you mean
mild pine
yee no doubt, and johnny and ben will either have one together or with others I'm sure
and I had better things to do that deal with panther! If anything it drove him down and immediately got into kill range for my allies.
It was honestly such a dumb clip but I love the ult took out luna snow mid ult
runic apex
in that case going down there was the better play actully
because how mk works the best way to fight a flanker is just to throw ankh down and shoot your own ankh instead of the flanker
most can't really deal with the ankh super well
that and the loki which are just free bounces
mild pine
There was also a mantis ult that you can just see when I land, so it's like... I'm just gonna slowly walk off this building and deal with him in a second
Not sure where I keep getting that shield from though
it's pretty damn strong
green junco
yee no doubt, and johnny and ben will either have one together or with others I'...
Johnny and Storm have one together
runic apex
i didnt realize it gave bonus health
green junco
According to leaks
mild pine
Oh that's an interesting combo
Probably a bonus for storm and an extra move for Johnny
Mantis' ult is really darn nice
runic apex
the wording on the reed and sue one imply it might be for the entire team which if so sounds extremely powerful
green junco
From what I've read, it looks like it upgrades Storms ult with fire
mild pine
Ben getting the same one with Groot as Rocket does and just riding Groot around
mild pine
Nice
green junco
Art for the new event, showing new skins for ||psylocke, BP, and Bucky||
green junco
Yeah so are the other two guys in the art
green junco
Probably non battle pass skins
Like paid for event skins
Like the power rangers intergalactic Wakanda skins
mild pine
Does this mean that Magneto's king outfit is from the same universe?
Everyone else is ragged to shit vampire killers and Magneto is dripped out to the nines "god it feels good to be king" level motherfucker?
green junco
I don't think all of the skins within the battle pass are related to the event, its a separate reference to the comics
Like blue Peni being a evangelion reference
mild pine
green junco
That's what I was thinking of, it's a house of M reference
But the free moon knight skin being the in universe "eternity nights" leader, with the vampire hunter emblem on the back, and the various character skins being members of the group
mild pine
I think Magneto is one of my favourite tanks to play honestly
I could do with a bit more damage but that's mostly because I miss and his attacks are slow.
I feel like I'm actually protecting people more than other tanks
green junco
Magneto is my favorite tank
I feel like a badass floating around before negating an ult and dunking on an ulting luna
Also a house of M skin in my battle pass? fuck yeah
green junco
House of M is a fun series
mild pine
a shame that it didn't save one I had previously, I would have enjoyed showing people as I slam dunked directly onto a jeff and Adam who were being so rude as to not look at me
green junco
Big
mild pine
"Oh look. The healers."

Another time just dropped my ult on a jeff who had snatched up my team. They swallowed up my team, I dropped a moon on their skull.
green junco
His voicelines are hype too since they got James Arnold Taylor on it
So far leaks might be saying that Ben's team up will also be tossing wolverine but hes the one we don't fully know the kit of yet
severe zephyr
Does anyone else get thrown around like that goddamn
mild pine
you can carry Jeff and Rocket
severe zephyr
I want to be able to throw jeff and rocket
mild pine
Pitching fluffballs and they stick to walls and ceilings

Does anyone else get thrown around like that goddamn
Wolverine has been thrown by MANY people
severe zephyr
so it seems!

He's just a sharp little guy

If you trust each other

activates his slashies too
green junco
The fastball special is kinda a meme across the xmen in general

Ah but that's what makes it fun half the time

But throwing wolverine in general was usually the main guy thrown around
severe zephyr
What about Magik she looks pretty throwable
green junco

What about Magik she looks pretty throwable
I don't think so, though that's because most people don't like her

Magik IS pretty throwable, unfortunately she does not appreciate it
severe zephyr
And wolverine does?
runic apex
all rage no range

He looks pretty happy with himself
mild pine
We're due for some villains after the fantastic 4. I'd love MODOK to show up as a vanguard
Bring some AIM baddies in

MODOK was on a lot of leakers lists
Dracula too maybe if he does get added?
Ultron is out next season not this one

Bring in the baddies!

Benjamin Grim better have a knock out punch like the right fist of god
Better have a Yancy Street Handshake that rattles windows from a block away

Benjamin Grim is a professional hater
I'm guessing, if they're having the evil versions of the characters for Sue and Reed
THIS is going to be Ben's
Fear Itself Ben Grimm, who was... a hell of a menace after that version of Johnny died
severe zephyr
Now that's a Stonegrim
mild pine
He was a little possessed by Jormungandr at the time
severe zephyr
fuck I got the name backwards
mild pine
It took Thor to bring him down and I believe it was not a walk in the park for the god
I just have a deep aprreciation for Ben Grimm and I want him to FEEL good.
green junco
They've been good at making the vanguards feel strong
Im kinda stoked for maybe a Ratatoskr vanguard in the future
Since she's in official art with blade
raven summit
Who is she?
mild pine
Squirrel of the world tree
green junco
Yeah she was imprisoned by the asgardians and used as a messenger around yggdrasil
Shes on the floor there
mild pine
Actually from norse mythology and all
green junco
In marvel comics, last time she was free on midgard, she supposedly made the dinosaurs extinct, according to Loki
mild pine
Bit of a temper
green junco
She's a major antagonist within unbeatable squirrel girl
And her horn can supposedly kill anything, even dracula, which is why he imprisoned her
How she looks in Unbeatable Squirrel Girl
Her alter ego Rachel Oskar
raven summit
Oh okay. I was wondering why she was beefing with Dracula.
green junco
She's a mischief maker, but later becomes an ally to Squirrel Girl
Dracula was beefing with her, since she has the power to kill him easily
green junco
He's been around for a long time
One of the recent big marvel wide events, Blood Hunt was orchestrated by him
Which I think sort of formed a basis for the current event, with some tweaking since multiverse shenanigans are involved in Rivals
sand kelp
fuck I got the name backwards
in OP's defense that is a kickass name, and i'm stealing it
green junco
Wolverine, Black Panther, Dagger, Miles, and Strange all become vampires, among others
But yeah Dracula is a super big deal, at least amongst the more occult oriented heroes
And is the strongest vampire ever, minus Varnae, the first ever vampire
(Who possess Blade and kick starts the events of blood hunt)
runic apex
this seems like a less goofy version of the zombies one
green junco
DC also recently had its own vampire event too
well "recently" aka, 2021-2023
Also pretty neat

maybe comics are good

Also Johnny and Peter are really good friends in the comics

Considering Sue and Reed's kids, Uncle Pete is needed
You've got a kid who is basically already way too powerful for his own good, and Uncle Doom on the other side.
green junco
Uncle Doom is a great influence idk what you mean
mild pine
Between Uncle Doom and Uncle Pete the kid will turn out alright
Uncle Doom all by himself? You're going to get a narcissist. Uncle Pete all by himself? You're going to get a nervous wreck with a hero complex.
Both? The most dangerous children in the universe.

I can't wait to hear reed telling namor to keep his damn wife's name out of his mouth every game
The Hood might be joining Rivals soon too
mild pine
The Hood?
runic apex
i want gambit mostly
green junco
mild pine
Also, I forgot I did something cool earlier. An enemy Strange tried to do the "portal off side of the map" thing to us in spawn, and I realized it was pointing upwards and I could see the ledge. So I grappled onto an area as MK and hauled myself up onto the ledge through the portal, and got a jump on the enemy team because no one was expecting me to come through the portal.
Gambit would be great
green junco
The Hood is a guy who wanted to be a supervillain, and stole the cloak of Dormammu and uses magic to conduct organized crime
He was also ghost rider for a bit too
errant folio
The Hood is a rare pull
violet ridge
He was also ghost rider for a bit too
the werewolf by night run has been great
violet ridge
One of the recent big marvel wide events, Blood Hunt was orchestrated by him
actually that was Varnae possesing blade, Drac was on the heroes side for that one
elsa bloodstone, daredevil, juggernaut and omega red are my hopes
runic apex
i mainly just want gambit
violet ridge
I tried out magik and moon knight first since I like them and their comics, but I really clicked with Magneto
got a 30/3 KA/D with him
runic apex
I main squirrel girl
violet ridge
although the fact an incompetent like me was doing so well likely means he'll end up getting nerfed because there's no way I can do that well without getting carried by a high tier
violet ridge
is he a high tier?
runic apex
no
violet ridge
so this is just my self loathing refusing to let me take credit for any sort of accomplishments?
violet ridge
he does seem to do well in pubs since he's not as reliant on organized heals like the melee tanks tanks are, he can ebb and flow to your teams actions more
runic apex
some peoplle just flow better with some charcters than others
violet ridge
I'm a tank player in most things so I'm not surprised I gravitated to that role
runic apex
SG is the 5th least used charcter yet i adore playing her
violet ridge
shame most of my favs are or will be dps
are we allowed to discuss the leaks and speculation here?
runic apex
twilit belfry
Magneto is a great solo tank
twilit belfry
shame most of my favs are or will be dps
Whomst?
violet ridge
wait they don't merge kills and assists? That means I was straight up 30 kills jeez
violet ridge
Whomst?
daredevil, elsa bloodstone, moon knight, magik
I wonder what other ranged tanks we might see
runic apex
my best with SG i think is 34-0
green junco
actually that was Varnae possesing blade, Drac was on the heroes side for that o...
Yeah I mentioned it later down in the chat, just saying that Dracula is still super relevant
runic apex
i almost mained winter soldier
green junco
For me with this game, I can see certain characters seemingly being "better" overall but not by enough to like be the pick or you're throwing, like in OW
runic apex
the only charcters id feel that way is really widow
even in ideal situation widow is just a worse hawkeye or hela
i think cap is also pretty bad, but i think its a bit less obvious
green junco
I think Cap in like a double tank setup, as someone to distract strategists while the team moves around works pretty well
He just needs a little more tech to run
runic apex
i think venom does that way better
green junco
You can combo oneshot a 275 with cap in like 3 seconds
Idk Venom doesn't have the ability to run away like Cap can
He can raise his shield and back up or just spring
runic apex
hes better at getting away than cap due to swing
and the health boost
and the ablity to climb
green junco
The swing has a long enough cooldown compared to just holding down shift and fearless leaping away
runic apex
its only 8 seconds
green junco
Which is 8 more than sprint
You can absolutly shred both, I just feel cap has more escape options
runic apex
but it gets you out of there way better than sprint does, sprint is so slow
venom can also make it when he is under 150 hp go all the way back to 900
green junco
Sprint in, fearless leap, slam, punch punch, throw, throw, shield up, back up
Maybe play around a corner if needed or pop ult if you want to keep going
runic apex
his ult is best used in a group
green junco
Right, you make room for your other tank or dps to come in with you
Plus blocking ults is great
Im kinda mad I didn't get the power ranger eagle cap skin before I knew how fun he was
since it was a limited skin or at least only in the shop for a bit
runic apex
it was a good skin
green junco
runic apex
I don't like any of the alt skins for the charcters i play the most
hexed hearth
I think Hulk can be allowed to eat some people in a ultimate style comic
"he can have a little human, as a treat"
twilit belfry
I wonder what other ranged tanks we might see
Doom
green junco
Honestly, all of the tanks are ranged kinda
Except maybe cap but his secondary shield throw when punching and small banner gun
hexed hearth
the main issue with hulk is that he doesn't deal damage
sure you can soak up more damage than anyone else, but when you have the shortest attack range in the game and the weakest DPS in the game, what good is that
his abilities are solid, but I don't see how they're supposed to be enough to make him work
green junco
I think playing hulk as a disrupter is rewarding for me. Charge jump and grab fliers, use my shout to pull a tank or strategist out of a fight, being a meat shield as the monster form
Keeping your jump always charged is key in the end, so you can keep going in and out of fights
violet ridge
Doom
Didn’t even consider him him but it world check out
Man thing and werewolf by night would also be cool but they’d probably be melee, and ghost rider would be mid range
Are we allowed to discuss the leaks here?
green junco
Man thing was a name that popped up on leaks
Yeah we talk about them a lot
Or mainly I do
: )
green junco
It doesn't help that half the leaks come from streamers
that and dataminers/anonymous testers
Thats how the major leakers get their videos
violet ridge
I’d heard of Emma, jean, deadpool, hitmonkey, modok, ultron, Angela, Valkyrie, blade, hood, and marvel
green junco
Yeah
violet ridge
Emma and carol will likely also be ranger tanks
Hadn’t heard of man thing but I’d love to see him
green junco
And Ultron full kit has been leaked, along with blades model
violet ridge
Hadn’t heard of doom on ot too
violet ridge
And Ultron full kit has been leaked, along with blades model
Oh? Can I see it?
twilit belfry

Which Marvel?
lilac snow
Carol Danvers
twilit belfry
Ah
green junco
Doom is just because he is the big bad of this game
twilit belfry
Didn’t even consider him him but it world check out
Once had a talk with someone about this, they said Doom would be a duelist, then I made the Argument
"No way a design that huge would be a duelist."
green junco
I could see Ratatoskr joining as a vanguard, due to showing up in art and being a plot point for season 1
violet ridge
I think him and drac may just be set dressing like master weaver for now
green junco
Master weaver isnt really important, compared to Dracula and Doom
He's just a guy
Or part of the set as you said
Dracula is the season main big bad while doom is the game big bad
Dracula as a strategist or vanguard would be awesome
twilit belfry
Adam Warlock is the least support looking support
green junco
Wdym
green junco
Adam warlock is the perfect specimen, he can't not be yoked
lilac snow
He also seems to spend like 90% of his time DPSing
violet ridge
I hobestlu can’t think of a character I super jive with who might become a ranged tank
green junco
Unlike most of the supports, his bullets don't heal people so
violet ridge
Out of game, like thematically
green junco
And rocket doesn't do a lot at long range
twilit belfry
Adam warlock is the perfect specimen, he can't not be yoked
But he has less health the the kpop idol
lilac snow
Unlike most of the supports, his bullets don't heal people so
Ye and his heal buttons are all fairly pretty cooldown gated
violet ridge
Kingpin could make a fun support
green junco
He can heal himself better though
lilac snow
I feel Kingpin would absolutely be a vanguard
green junco
Popping one and going from like 50 to 200 is awesome
green junco
Luna doesn't really have that ability
lilac snow
It'd also funny if he was more Spidey-villain era and not Daredevil-villain era
green junco
(imo most of the tanks right now are ranged technically)
violet ridge
A juggernaut/mystique season with the x mansion would be fun
violet ridge
It'd also funny if he was more Spidey-villain era and not Daredevil-villain era
I’d bet he gets his laser cane
lilac snow
Because then Kingpin gets gadgets and shit like... yeah, a laser in his cane!
violet ridge
Which was a thing he had in his spider colourful era before becoming dd’s neonoir adversary
lilac snow
But I also think he should have a goon button
violet ridge
Nico minoru and Carolina dean would be a super cool but super unlikely season
lilac snow
Just summon a hapless goon like Namor has squids
violet ridge
But I also think he should have a goon button
What about calling in the enforcers, ox, fancy Dan and montana
twilit belfry
Idier, Juggernaught is immune to headshots
sour forge
Just summon a hapless goon like Namor has squids
this
green junco
Jeff already has reduced critical hits
violet ridge
Idier, Juggernaught is immune to headshots
Give him a helmet mechanic where he isn’t till it’s shot off then he has to grab a health pack to put it back on
lilac snow
Modok should have like a doubled health pool and not immune to headshots. Because it'd be funny
twilit belfry
Jeff already has reduced critical hits
Kinda needs it for a creature that is 80% head
violet ridge
Modok feels like a support
twilit belfry
Anthropodlogist, whats your main in the three roles
violet ridge
Tank
I’m still new but definitely clicked more with magneto than moon knight and magik
And I tank in ffxiv
green junco
Give him a helmet mechanic where he isn’t till it’s shot off then he has to grab...
Nah that wouldn't work, his armor is made of like indestructible mythical demon metal
twilit belfry
And I tank in ffxiv
I mean, which characters in each each of the roles do you play most
green junco
The cosmos armor
violet ridge
People pull his helmet off all the time, besides hulk is typically more bulletproof
lilac snow
Nah that wouldn't work, his armor is made of like indestructible mythical demon ...
The helmet is indestructable but the strap keeps breaking
violet ridge
I mean, which characters in each each of the roles do you play most
I’m still too new for that
twilit belfry
Hmm
violet ridge
Cain is canonically invincible but obviously won’t be if he’s added
twilit belfry
Who you main now? Current guy you play most
violet ridge
Magneto but I’ve only played like 3-4 hours so far
twilit belfry
Cain is canonically invincible but obviously won’t be if he’s added
Juggernaught should have a snowball mechanic
violet ridge
I’m very new
green junco
I mean my main thing with this game just pick a bunch of characters in quick play and test them out
I feel like a lot of the characters have fun play styles and all can do a lot of work
twilit belfry
Should Spiderman be able to kill a 250 character in a single combo
green junco
I mean he can right now, I think all characters have combos that can kill a 250
Some are just easier than others
twilit belfry
spiderman is swaggy so he's allowed to do anything he wants
True
hexed hearth
I mean he can right now, I think all characters have combos that can kill a 250
what defines a "combo"
because for a lot of ranged characters their only form of combo is "shoot them in the head several times in a row"
teal mist
The dive dps all have like a functional burst instead of 240 damage like some russian ladies
sour forge
idk what wolverine does but round 1 I played psylocke into peni strange and had a bad time
then i switched to wolverine on a hunch and proceeded to put them into a fucking locker
I genuinely feel stupider after playing this character
sour forge
yeah I heard second-hand wolverine was the tankbuster
sly yew
i play tank i hate dealing with wolverine
sour forge
do not understand the targeting on his dive move in the slightest so I just kind of used it as a get-out tool
but still
between that and just fucking inting into people when I had regen factor up
runic apex
i think the idea with him is you use the dash to get in close then use the leap and pull them back
sour forge
pretty functional character
twilit belfry
I love watching wolvie clips
sour forge
yeah in theory you can just fucking abduct people with leap
twilit belfry
Fucking jumpscaring people
sour forge
maybe I just wasn't using it up close?
actually that makes way more sense
I was trying to skillshot iron man out of the air with it
but dashing in, rotating the boss and then tackling them back into my team seems much more effective
twilit belfry
Probably great to pair up with a groot
sour forge
as any ow player can attest getting fucking yoinked or yeeted as a tank is extremely upsetting
strange holding up shield while i shank his innards was
a move
twilit belfry
as any ow player can attest getting fucking yoinked or yeeted as a tank is extre...
Being one of two is atleast better
sour forge
it definitely is but peni and strange might be some of the worse tanks at dealing with him
peni folds instantly to any upclose pressure without setup
strange can fly but that seems like it could be a reeeeally bad idea against a wolf that can aim his tackle
because you're still pretty slow
runic apex
peni does well against him if she sticks near her nests
sly yew
i love playing peni
lapis aspen
Peni is lots of fun, I love it when someone I can't see randomly dies because they thought they could flank point
sour forge
like batman, peni with setup time can probably kill wolverine
unfortunately, what exactly is she gonna do on a koth map
if they already have the point
going the other way sure, could be an issue there
mild pine
so this is just my self loathing refusing to let me take credit for any sort of ...
just want to say, Magneto is a slow moving tank with the ability to throw up shields who attacks slowly and with a regular ammo pool. If you find you're rocking it with Magneto then it is pure skill being channeled into that man. Also I might want to ask for tips cause I love him but I've never gone 30 kills
Peni who has set up is great at dealing with Wolverine and, hilariously, an ulting Jeff
nothing quite like a Jeff clearing your team, then popping into existance on your webs and being immediately obliterated
sour forge
if she was defending in an attack/defend map it probably woudlve shook out a lot better but unfortunately she just got nuked in koth
mild pine
The main problems I have with her on koth is the fact there's not often many good places to put her nest
Like the asgard throne room, place is so fricking open
sour forge
it also just... if they have the point you provide almost nothing to your team's ability to actually cap
they do not have to come to you
so you are not a character
mild pine
I can see it being a struggle yeah but also getting on and causing a distraction can be damn good. Plus her ult can be very good for pushing on to points. She definitely struggles more than most though.
Her right click web is always mega useful though

literally all his skins up to now are great
wanton salmon
so you are not a character

moving up my web location to the nearest health pack by the point
then deconstructinf the spawner and pushing with ult after throwing a stack of mines
sour forge
maybe me just inting onto anyone with more than 300 hp as soon as they walked out was the main issue
wanton salmon
then as soon as there is a second of space throw the spawner on the point, preferably behind a little wall so at least some web is on the point
you can then extend the web area with her stun to get wider spawner mine spread on the point
but she is very dependent on having at least a corner to tuck the spawner behind AND on not fighting flywers without team support
